Well..for those of you who know what you're looking at, keep drooling...
This will go in my LS running free-air in the rear deck. Stay tuned as this will not be installed for at least a couple of months.

So I take it the controller is also the amp? I didn't realize that it came with that when you said the price you were offered. Looks sweet. Hope the free-air set up works out. I thought they were designed for about 2 cubic ft sealed. Of course it looks like the motor assembly is about another 1/2 cubic ft so that would be about 2 1/2 cubic ft.

Mmmm niiiice. Those things ROCK- if you get them installed properly. I'd be concerned about the free-ait stuff. Stick a box around them, and it'll sound better than most anything else on the market.
I thought about buying some of those puppies, but my wallet decided Focal subs were cheaper. (if that doesn't sound scary enough!)
I've got a review from CSR or CarSound or AS&S or one of those mags somewhere.. shoot me an email if you want me to try and dig it out. ( I never check this forum anymore, cause I don't have time to pretend I know anything about car audio.. but the stuff from back then is what I started with, so I know it pretty well.)
blah. niiiice. me want.

If this is anything like Velodyne's home audio systems, then you'll probably need to have it in a carefully designed enclosure. Read the installation manual carefully and see what it says about this.
For those that don't know, this is a servo-controlled sub. Inside the driver is a position sensor of some sort (this is what that extra 9-pin plug is for). The controller checks the driver's actual position against what it thinks the position should be for the given input signal at a given time, and it adjusts the output signal as appropriate until the driver is doing exactly what the controller thinks it should be doing. This is a pretty cool technology.

Let's just say there are no trunk leaks.
